All Her Secrets

The convention officially began, and Catherine sat on the left of Marshall, with a representative from Ellinos Academy sitting on his right.

This university ranked far above Styre University in the world. Unfortunately, their research and development in this experimental project were far behind that of Styre University's laboratory. The Ellinos Academy representatives were very dissatisfied with this.

Seeing Marshall bringing a student here, the representative of Ellinos Academy, Atticus Sterling, sarcastically remarked, "It looks like Styre University's research has made breakthrough progress, huh?" This sudden remark attracted everyone's attention. No one knew what was going on with Atticus. Curiously, someone asked him, "Mr. Sterling, have you received ssecret information?" Atticus sneered. "No, but it's just obvious, isn't it? Look, Professor Hartley is bringing his student to this convention, allowing a freshman to communicate with us. If there hadn't been significant achievements, how could he do this?" His implication was that Marshall looked down on them by sending a student to communicate to talk with them. This statement made everyone's expression turn sour. All eyes shifted back and forth between Marshall and Atticus.

Marshall looked embarrassed, not knowing how to explain. He struggled to say, "Please, don't misunderstand. I didn't mean that. The reason I brought Catherine here is because I believe in her outstanding abilities. She has great insight into the experimental project and is much more capable than I am.” Atticus coldly scrutinized Marshall and said, "Professor Hartley, why bother? You don't have to belittle yourself like this, do you? If you're less capable than her, why don't you let her be your teacher? I heard she's just a freshman!" Marshall's face becextremely embarrassed, not knowing how to explain himself.

Catherine snapped out of her daze and looked at Atticus. His heart skipped a beat when her cold and indifferent gaze swept over him. He didn't expect a young girl to have such an intimidating look in her eyes. He was stunned for a moment before slowly regaining his composure.

"You're Professor Hartley's student, right? Do you have a problem with what I said?" Atticus asked.

Why don't you tell us how your project has progressed and why you seem to look down on us?" Marshall's face darkened in an instant. He didn't know what Catherine was thinking. He always knew that Catherine wasn't that kind of person, but what did she mean by this? Before Marshall could figure it out, he heard Catherine coldly say to Atticus," You're right. Not only can I be Professor Hartley's teacher, but I can also be yours." She then raised her eyebrows and looked at Atticus mockingly. "Con, be my student, and maybe I'll kindly teach you something." Atticus's face immediately darkened, and he slammed his hand on the table, angrily shouting at Catherine, "How dare you? Who do you think you are to speak tolike that? Don't underestimate Ellinos Academy." Catherine looked at him disdainfully and said loudly, "So what if I look down on you?" She didn't understand why such a small fry dared to speak so arrogantly in front of her. Maybe she had been so friendly recently that these
